osculating orbit madâr-e âbusandé Fr.: orbite osculatrice The Keplerian orbit that a satellite would follow after a specific time t if all forces other than central inverse-square forces ceased to act from time t on. An osculating orbit is tangent to the real, perturbed, orbit and has the same velocity at the point of tangency. → osculating; → orbit. |
osculating plane hâmon-e âbusandé Fr.: plan osculateur For a curve C at a point p, the limiting plane obtained from taking planes through the tangent to C at p and containing some variable point p' and then letting p' approach p along C. → osculating; → plane. |
osculating sphere sepehr-e âbusandé, kore-ye ~ Fr.: sphère osculatrice For a curve C at a point p, the limiting sphere obtained by taking the sphere that passes through p and three other points on C and then letting these three points approach p independently along C. → osculating; → sphere. |
osculation âbuseš Fr.: osculation The contact between two osculating curves or the like. Verbal noun of → osculate |
OSIRIS-REx OSIRIS-REx Fr.: OSIRIS-REx A → spacecraft whose goal is to collect a sample from the asteroid → 101955 Bennu and bring it back to Earth. It was launched by → NASA on September 8, 2016. OSIRIS-REx will spend two years chasing Bennu down, finally rendezvousing with the → near-Earth asteroid in August 2018. The spacecraft will then study the → asteroid Bennu from orbit for another two years before grabbing at least 60 grams of surface material in July 2020. The sample should reach Earth in 2023. The analysis of the sample would allow to study the role that → B-type asteroids like Bennu, which are primitive and apparently carbon-rich, may have played in helping life appear on Earth. The name is short for Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security, Regolith Explorer . |
osmium osmiom Fr.: osmium A very hard, brittle metal belonging to the → platinum group elements; symbol Os. → Atomic number 76, → atomic weight 190.2, → melting point 3,045 °C, → boiling point 5,027 °C, → specific gravity 22.57 at 20°C. It was discovered in 1803 simultaneously with → iridium in a crude → platinum ore by the English chemist Smithson Tennant. From Gk. osme "smell" because of the sharp odor of the volatile oxide. |
osmosis tarârân Fr.: osmose The process by which solvent molecules pass through a partially permeable membrane from a dilute solution into a more concentrated solution, thus equalizing the concentrations of materials on either side of the membrane. → permeability. Extracted from Fr. endosmose "endosmosis" and exosmose "exosmosis," from Gk. prefixed osmos "a thrusting, a pushing," from othein "to push, to thrust;" cf. Av. vādāiiôit "breaks through, hunts," vadah- "wedge;" Mod.Pers. guvah, gavah "wedge;" Skt. vadh- "to slay, kill," vadha- "killer." Tarârân, literally "pushing across," from tarâ-, → trans-, + rân present stem of rândan "to push, drive, cause to go," causative of raftan "to go, walk, proceed" (present tense stem row-, Mid.Pers. raftan, raw-, Proto-Iranian *rab/f- "to go; to attack"). |
osmotic pressure fešâr-e tarârâni Fr.: pression osmotique The hydrostatic pressure produced on the surface of a partially permeable membrane by osmosis. |
Ostriker-Peebles criterion sanjidâr-e Ostriker-Peebles Fr.: critère d'Ostriker-Peebles An approximate empirical criterion for the stability of a → galactic disk against its collapse to form a bar. The disk is stable if the following relation holds: T/|W| < 0.14, where T is the rotational → kinetic energy and |W| is the absolute value of the gravitational → potential energy. While the → Toomre criterion applies only to small linear perturbations, the Ostriker-Peebles criterion describes global modes. Ostriker & Peebles, 1973, ApJ 186, 467; → criterion. |
other 1) digar (#); 2) nâxodi kardan, digaridan Fr.: autre 1a) Being the one (as of two or more) remaining or not included.
